.ELOPEMENT (!
James Buck Leaves Town with
the Wife Of Another.

James Buck is again a principal in
an elopement. This time tits Bridge
ton woman. Before it was a woman
from Centre Grove. At that time
Z Buck lived in Cedarville Since then
he has moved to this city, and Of late
has been in the employ of Getsinger
IL Son, as a carter.
Buck is a bad character He has a
wife residing in Cedarville, but he has
been living with woman in this city.
On Saturday he left his horse and cart
and drawing his sons wages (his son
is also employed with Getsinger & Son. }
he hired horse and buggy of J. Al.
Woodruff, the liveryman, stating that
he was going to Centreton. 1t was
shortly after six o'clock when he left.
Buck did not go alone, however, as
Mrs. David Hoffman, who has been
living with her husband on Mill street,
a ccompanied him. She also took her
baby.
Sunday morning nothing having
been seen of the man or horse, Mr..
Woodruff suspicioned something was
wrong and at once made inquiry into
the matter. He could learn nothing
of them, neither could Mr.. Hoffman of
his wife and child. Six dollars in
money and a silver watch was found
to be missing from his home. Mr..
Woodruff went to Centreton but got
no trace of them there. Thus matters
stood until to-day. This morning Mr..
Woodruff drove toward Salem but
could learn nothing.
Policeman Parvin was in the Mayors
Office onday morning about O'Clock,
when the telephone announced that
somebody wanted to say something. -
1t proved to be word from Gloucester,
stating that man giving his name as
Buck, with a woman and baby, had
been arrested and held. The parties
having said they were from Bridgeton,
the authorities at Gloucester wanted
to know what to do with them The
appearance of the horse, and an offer
made to sell it, caused Bucks arrest.
The authorities were instructed to
hold him.
After Mr.. Woodruff returned Monday
morning from around the country it
was decided that he should go to
Gloucester and get his horse and buggy.
He cares nothing about the fellow.
Buck is said to have been seen in
Bridgeton as late as midnight on Satur-
day. The watchman of Getsinger's
glass works says he saw him pull the
staple from the door of Getsinger's
Darn and enter it. When Buck hired
the horse of Mr.. Woodruff he gave his
name as Jim Smith," Hoffman is
quite anxious to have his wife return.
The woman has been running around
with Buck for some time, complaints
having been made against him before
the Mayor. The whole thing is very
unsavory, and the only thing we want
to see returned to Bridgeton is the
horse and buggy.

There is city ordinance which says
that all awnings shall be at least eight
feet high. There are number in this
city which it is impossible for an ordi-
narily tall man to walk under. This
is not as it should he, and the evil
should be righted.

secured the control of the Baltimore Sc

ments to locate an office here.

Thing of Beauty.
| went with a girl friend the other
day to see her beautified. The place
was no factory of hair colorings or
complexion washes, but the highly
professional New York hospital, one
of our great public %benefactions. The
maiden was already pretty save that
she had the designation known as
harelip. The improvement will make
her entirely kissablc. Too few par
ents are willing, through ignorance, to
submit their little ones to the knife of
the surgeon at an early age, and as a
result we have around us unsightlv
persons who might have had their
features nodded into those If good.
looking men and women. The case in
point was that of a girl of about scvcn-
teen who had a single harelip with
protusion of the teeth Of the upper
jaw. There was also a cleft in that
jaw, which, OF course, complicated the
aeformity. Had the operation BE- yn
performed in infancy the chances are
that the woman would have shown
very Sigh, if any, traces of tho sur
gcon's work. but as it is q more o,

be visible. She was put un-
der ether and Il small slice
cut off n side of the assure in the lip
and a slice off the other side. nearly,
but not quite to the bottom Of the lip.
Then these two raw edges were
brought together and stitched; and the
piece of flesh that remained from the
second incision was carried along the
base Of the lip 50 that no indcntation
should be aftorward observed. The
surgeons plastic hand now went 10
work to fashion the disfigured men,
Der into mt that should serve her well
for the remainder of her days. This
then completed the lip, and there was
left only the protruding teeth to rene.
dy. With two or three sharp blows Of
the ma'let upon the chiscl the top part
of the two sides of the jaw were scpa-
brought in opposition by de-
pressing them and secured in place.
Then the operation was ended, and it
showed immediate signs Of great and
lasting improvement in appearance,
one which a not fail to be Of vast
benefit to her us n woman. She has

The interest OF the whole centers in
the room where Washington died
"The Gan'al's room. the room | likes

called it, in tone of genuine and
reverent affection. just where the
great mai lay a-dying lightweight
years ago, the bed now stands, and be-
side it the light stand on which are the
rings left by his medicine-glasses, un-
changed since that day. The secrc-
tary ut which he wrote, the hair-coy-
cred trunk in which lie carried his
posses ions, the surveyors tripod he
had used. the cloak he threw about
his shoulders when he went over the
farm, the leather chair in which no
sat, the covering cut away by vandal
hands, are all there. There was some.
thing, in spite of these few discordant
noes. that seemed peculiar to that
room. could not feel that thousands
OF eyes had looked upon it with idle
curiosity, but as though it had been

Beatrice and Her Mother.

There is no foundation whatever for
a report which has appeared in several
papers that a separate establishment
is to be provided for Princess Beatrice
aud Prince Henry of B%attenbers early
next year. They will continue to re-
side with her Majesty, and there has
never been any idea of her leaving the
court. The Queen can not bear 10 be
separated from Princess Beatrice, and
would not even allow her to pass a
month ut Buckham palace last season.
The Princess thoroughly understands
all the Queens whims and wishes, and
she is now we'll vorsod in all the per-
picking court technicalities of which
her Majesty is so tenacious. Princess
Beatrice has far more influence than
any OF her brothers or sisters, except
the Prince Of Wales. when he deems it
necessary to exert himself, and she is
allowed TO have very much her
way in all domestic matters. The story
that Princess Alix of Hssse was to re-
place hnr aunt as companion to the
Queen was n~onsensical. She is onl,

A RUDE AWAKENING.

She had a face surprising fair,
All men admired her beauty rare
And1f
Well, l adored her, nothing less,
To be with her was happiness
Three-ply.
OF course she knew, she was not blind;
She saw my plight, and she was kind
And good;
For when / asked her il she'd wed
A chap like me, she blushed, and said
She would.
O, then the uinmer quickly flew
Til the time came to say adieu
One night.
She promised when went away
That every single blessed day
She'd write.
But her first letter drove me mad
Almost, with wild despair, for, sad
TO tell,
This lovely maid, for whom l yearned
So l~ongingly, had never learned
To spell.
